...have enjoyed understanding concepts through problem solving, emphasizing understanding over rote memorization.

Linda

...Grades 7-12 in the State of Connecticut. I have enjoyed my experiences teaching and private tutoring for students. I am a mathematics tutor and students enjoy working with me in a one-on-one setting. My tutoring style is effective and students show improvement in their schoolwork because they are able to better understand the material.... A teacher should encourage all students to meet their fullest potential by ensuring that students are engaged and understanding the material.

Anna

...New Haven, CT. I grew up and studied environmental sciences in Germany, worked and traveled a lot internationally and have taught languages and science at the university and non-academic level. I enjoy teaching and I particularly enjoy supporting students who want to learn my beautiful but sometimes just a little too confusing language.... Using a language is the best way to learn. With me you will be talking a lot!

Dane

...and studying for midterms is rarely interesting, but it's my goal to make tutoring sessions as fun as possible. As a Senior Literature and History double major at Yale, I have a wide breadth of knowledge in a lot of different subjects, and I'm happy to share my knowledge in any of them!... I get that not everybody wants to spend their free time working on Calculus problems, but if a student has decided to get a tutor, either because they think they could use the extra help, or just because they want to get ahead in school, I think that's amazing, and I'd like to do my best to make their work as fun as possible.

Lana

...Grammar the most. I enjoy these subjects because I like the challenge of making complex material fun and easy to understand. I do this by listening to my students and working to build on their natural strengths. In my free time I love Cuban salsa dancing, camping, and crafting. I’m also a football fan.

...to embrace an idea or a solution. I very much enjoy engaging with the students in the process of learning new things in different and creative ways. During a tutoring session, I observe how the student is processing information and how he/she engages with the material. I then adjust my tutoring to accommodate his/her needs,...
